Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
- 1 cup sugar
- 1 cup unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 cup vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons flaxseed meal
- 5 tablespoons water
- 0.5 cup brown sugar
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
In a small bowl, combine the flaxseed meal and water to create a flax egg. Stir well and let it sit for about 5 minutes to thicken.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and half of the ground cinnamon.
In another bowl, mix the sugar, almond milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and the prepared flax egg until well combined.
Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until the mixture is just combined. Do not overmix.
In a separate small bowl, combine the remaining cinnamon with the brown sugar to create the cinnamon swirl.
Pour half of the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture evenly over the batter.
Carefully spoon the remaining batter over the cinnamon sugar layer. Use a knife to gently swirl through the batter to create the swirl effect.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
